is it just possible that women bring differant yet still valuble talents to the table?....is it just possible that women's natural tendencies....reflection, patience, team-oriented, stamina, and adaptability are perhaps as useful as total body strength and physical size?

No, it's not possible, as proved by throusands of years of male/female interaction. Only liberals/socialists think that humankind has changed. It hasn't.

afterall, a large percentage of military jobs nowadays are in support systems and technology....something done without super strength...

Women have traditionaly held military jobs in rear support, to release men to fight, and have served well in that capacity. At any time one faces the enemy, one has to have the physical strength to do so and aid their comrades in battle. Superstrength? No, just normal male strength, with the musculature, dense connective connective tissue, and massive bone structure thereof.

I just can not get over how much animosity there is against women on these war boards....

That's a strawman. People out here have no animosity against women at all; their animosity is directed toward policies that put women in danger needlessly.

I get the impression that some freepers would like more women dead just to prove their point...geesh...

Think clearly here. What gets more women dead, combat or clerical roles in the rear?

Oh, some certainly do.

(I am not arguing for women in combat, but you'd best realize there is hatred for women in some quarters here, and not deny it.)
